Revision of Letter of Opinion

I’ll write a letter of opinion based on this news :


Dear Editor,

I was interested to read “Headlines Cyber bullying claims life in Medan” by Apriadi Gunawan (Sat, April 09th 2016). I am writing to express my concern about the bullying that addressed to Sonya Ekarina Sembiring Depari, a senior high school student in Medan, who was harshly being bullied by netizens for threatening a traffic policewoman by claiming to be the daughter of a general.

Sonya’s attitude was not really good. However, the bullying from the netizens may be able to cause bad effect to Sonya and family. As far as we know that Sonya’s father was passed away after watching the news about what Sonya did.

My suggestion is it is better for the netizens to stop bullying. The netizens should give the smart and wise advice. For example, we can send private letter to Sonya, send about good motivation. By doing that, Sonya and her family will not feel embarrassed and depressed.

Dear John Simpsons,
I am writing to complain about your decision in closing the school. 
I am sorry to hear that the school will be closed because of the falling numbers. That's a very bad news. 
In my opinion the decision in closing the school is unfair due to some reasons.
Firstly, I am afraid that the students will find any difficulties in continuing their study.
Secondly, if they continue they study in the other school, they will find a new school environment. It is not an easy way for them to have a good interaction in their new school.
I am sure that it is very difficult to change your decision. However, I hope you can find the best solution to solve the problem.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours Faithfully,

Kristin Hannah

Survey Report

The Usage of the Plastic Bags 
Introduction
Nowadays, plastic is commonly used in our society. We can find so much plastic bags in our daily life. At home, school, beach, and in the river there are always plastic bags.  Moreover, the plastic bags are freely got from the supermarket.

The plastic bags can persist up to 1000 years without being decomposed. The plastic bag wastes cause serious pollution and health problems. The huge of the plastic bags also raise many problems. According to a World Wildlife Fund Report in 2005, nearly 200 different species of sea life including whales, dolphins, seals, and turtles die because of plastic bags. Moreover, plastics also cause flood and many health problems like cancer, liver dysfunction, etc.
This survey is conducted to find out the usage of the plastic bag in society.

Method
The research was done by online questionnaire to collect data from random respondents. Thirty people were asked to complete the survey on May, 5-8th 2016, with 46.7% male and 53.3% female and most of them are teenagers (83.3%).

Findings
The result indicated that all of the respondents can differentiate an organic and non-organic trash. Most of the respondents (86.7%) claimed that using plastic bags in daily life can raise many problems. 40% respondents have known the danger of the plastic bags from internet. Although most of the respondents have already known about the danger of the plastic bags, the using of the plastic bags still overloads. It proved that 60% respondents claimed that there are some plastic bags around them.

Most of the respondents (93.3%) used 1-5 plastic bags a day. Easy to use was the main reason for the respondents in using these products (56.7%). Over 63.3% respondents used plastic bags once a while for shopping. Most of the respondents realized the importance of reducing the use of plastic bags. It proved that 76.7% respondents have used the reuse plastic bags when they went shopping. Most of the respondents (73.3%) had no problem in throwing away the plastic garbage.

Actually, there are some ways to reduce the use of the plastic bags. One of them was by using reusable bag. Unfortunately, people seldom used reusable bag. 43.4% respondents just use reusable bag once a while when they went shopping. Most of them (40%) claimed that the difficulty of bringing reusable bag is because they forget to bring their reusable bag.

40% respondents judged that the government had good contribution in managing the huge of the plastic garbage. Recently, the government makes a wise rule for the people who go shopping in the supermarket. It is a must for the customers to buy the plastic bags. Over 80% respondents agree with this rule. However 50% respondents claimed that buying plastic bag was effective to reduce the plastic garbage.

It seems that the people begin to realize to reduce the usage of the plastic bags. All of the respondents have a plan to reduce the usage of plastic bags in their daily. Furthermore, over 93.3% respondents agreed if the government banned the usage of the plastic bags

Conclusion
From this survey we can conclude that the entire respondents often use plastic bag. Most of the respondents still use plastic bags although they know about the disadvantages of using plastic bags. The average of the respondents use 1-5 plastic bags a day. Only few people in our daily life use reusable bag. However, most of the respondents begin to realize in reducing the usage of the plastic bags.

Writing task : Responding to a Complaint Letter

Shofia's letter

The conselor,
Anti-Discrimination Board,
Starcross St,
Blacktown

Dear Sir or Madam
I wish to complain about the discrimination that I got when I applied for a job for XYZ Company.
Three days ago, I applied for a job to XYZ Company as an IT Programmer, but I don’t get the job. I know that it’s their right not to recruit the applicant, especially when the qualification is not suitable. However, I don’t get the job because I came from Germany. At least they told me like that. I am so shocked when knowing the reason. How it could be? Meanwhile, at the vacancy, it’s written that it’s ok wherever the applicant came from.
I need you to overcome my problem soon. Maybe you can give them a warning, so there is no more discrimination.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours Faithfully,

Gavril Johnson

Dear Mr Johnson,
We have got a letter from Anti-Discrimination Board. It is about your complaint related to your application letter you applied in our company. Thank you for letting us know about this situation.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience situation you got. We understand how disappointing it can be when your expectations are not met.
The new qualification was updated a week before the recruitment. We decided to emphasize on the American citizen to do the job. The job required the employees who stay in New York for years. We want the employees focus on their job.
Unfortunately, we cannot do anything. But if we need new employees we hope you do not mind in submitting an applicant letter.
We look forward to seeing you in the future.
Yours sincerely,
